House Mouse Challenge #11 & Cute Card Thursday Challenge #34

This week challenged us to use something natural on a card. After a while of hesitating and playing with variety of elements I decided to go with wood and used tooth pick to decorate my card. It was fun and using this very unusual embellishement made me think of all the other cool things I might give a try in the future.



Stamp: House Mouse - Feeling Rosy
Colors: Copic Sketch Markers
Pink - E000, RV11
Light brown - E51, E57
Dark Brown - E59
Green - G20, G99

WOW, LOVE the colours and the way you've layed it out, very classy. The only thing I use cocktail sticks for is putting glue onto little fiddley bits.
Take care & keep smiling Ann
